    Unhappy What would you do?

    Okay so I bought a little black knitted schrug from a store that I adore dearly where I usually get my dresses from for certain occasions. However here is my delimma after I got home I realized the schrug is much to big for me it's a large and I didn't realize that it really actually should have been a small:-( now the problem remains that it is a final sale all I really want to do is exchange it for a small is there anything I can do or is it just wasted money now because it's too big? can any of you give me advise in regards to this scenario?

    Thank you it's greatly appreciated

    Lots of cookies and cake should solve your problem, just give it time.

    I'd go back to the store and ask as nicely as possible to exchange it for a small. Since you want the same item in a different size they just might help you out.

    If that doesn't work, I'd sell it on Ebay or a consignment shop. If you got a good deal on it, you might be able to make most of your money back.

    If it's knitted, maybe it'll shrink if you wash it in hot water and use a dryer. Then it won't be so big anymore.

    Man you just want to have your cake and eat it too, don't you!
    If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for your problems, you wouldn't be able to sit for a month.

    Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"

    believe me I do and I enjoy ever bit of it when I do even if that means running harder on my daily 3 mile run he-he. Life is great you just have to embrace the moments when you have them.
